Chapter 671: Rejected Transaction



"@#¥D!"

Just as she was about to throw away the poisonous fruits in her hand, the old primitive man, whose mouth was still numb, spoke up to stop her.

Seeing that the person holding the fruits was very scared, the old primitive man reached out and took the possibly poisonous fruits from her hands and held them in his own hands.

As people grow older and gain more experience, whether consciously or unconsciously, they will gradually gain some wisdom from life.

The two words "old people become cunning and sly" don't sound very nice, but they are indeed the best summary of this situation.

In later generations when knowledge is easily available and people are bombarded with various information, this advantage will be offset to a certain extent. However, in this era of word of mouth, in terms of wisdom and life experience alone, older people generally have an advantage over younger people.

For example, now, when several female primitive people who were following were so frightened that they wanted to throw away the newly discovered fruits in their hands because of the thought of death, this older primitive man stood up.

She felt that even though these fruits were poisonous, they would not kill people.

Because by now, the uncomfortable feeling in her mouth had subsided a lot.

And up to now, except for some discomfort in the places where it was touched, there is no discomfort in other places.

She had been poisoned when tasting something before. Not only did she feel uncomfortable in her stomach, but she also had little strength.

But now it feels completely different from before.

Therefore, she concluded that these fruits, which she had never seen before, although poisonous, would not be too poisonous.

This is the advantage of being older and having experienced more things.

Because I have experienced a lot, when I encounter similar things again, I can make comparisons and then make some more correct decisions.

Moreover, this fruit can be exchanged for delicious salt and precious pottery from that mysterious and wealthy tribe. How can it be thrown away so easily?

You know, after several years of exchanges, basically all the seeds around their tribe have been exchanged.

After walking forward for a while, they saw a small ditch in front of them. A few birds drinking water there flapped their wings and took off when they were about to get close to it.

"¥%..."

The primitive woman carefully placed the fruits beside the ditch and asked the women in the tribe to wash their hands with the water in the ditch. After washing her hands, she lay down beside the ditch and drank the water directly like a wild beast.

He didn't swallow the water in his mouth, but gulped it down and spit it out.

She learned this method from the ancient primitive people.

She didn't care too much about it before, but after the person who was studying with her like the dead old primitive man tasted the fatal grass together, she remembered this matter clearly.

Because that time, the two of them tasted the grass together, she rinsed her mouth, but the other one didn't, and she is still alive today.

Of that person, only an incompletely burned skull was left at the edge of the tribe's cave. Together with many people who had died in the tribe before, he watched them eat, sleep, and hum primitive tunes with his empty eye sockets...

"#¥%!"

Several people who had washed their hands continued to move towards the tribe. When they were almost at the tribal cave, the female primitive who had wanted to throw away the seeds suddenly shouted excitedly.

While shouting, he pointed in the direction of the tribal cave. The old primitive man holding the fruit in his hand also hurriedly looked towards the cave when he heard it.

In front of the cave, there were some deer. Some of them were eating grass leisurely with their heads down, while others were lying on the ground, turning their heads and combing their hair with their rough tongues.

Next to the deer there are some formidable wolves.

Next to the wolves were some exquisite baskets woven from branches, or some exquisite animal skin bags that they could not make no matter how hard they tried.

There were precious pottery in the baskets, some of which contained precious salt.

It's that tribe!

The tribe that hadn't been here for a long time came today!

After seeing this, the old primitive man couldn't help but get excited.

The arrival of this tribe meant that their tribe would finally have delicious salt to eat.

She looked at the freshly picked fruits in her hands and felt even happier. Fortunately, she did not let anyone throw away the fruits!

Inside the cave, the leader of the tribe looked at the things in front of him and looked a little worried.

Since the beginning of this year, their tribe has not had very good luck. They have not been able to hunt many wild animals, and most of the time they have to rely on the wild vegetables dug up, the wild fruits picked, and the fish caught by the women to supplement their lives.

Not many wild animals were killed, which meant that the tribe did not get much fur, and not much salt could be exchanged.

This was not good news for him. After all, he had deeply felt the discomfort of lacking salt these days.

"#¥5..."

The leader of the tribe spoke, pointing at a thin and weak child with a big belly, and then pointed to a large jar of salt in a basket.

The meaning was obvious. They wanted to use this child from their tribe who was not in good health to exchange for a large jar of salt...

Shang and Mao had never encountered this kind of situation before. How could they exchange people for salt?

Shang didn't even think about it and just shook his head to refuse.

The reason for his refusal was very simple, because when the Son of God talked about using things for trading, he never mentioned that people could be exchanged.

Having stayed in the Qingque tribe for a long time, with the extremely wise Son of God above him and the witch who was also much wiser than ordinary people below him, plus a leader who seemed to be much more capable than he was at the beginning, generally speaking, he didn't have much time to use his brain.

Therefore, in many matters, it is easy to form the mentality of doing things according to the instructions of the Son of God.

Not long after Shang shook his head, Mao also shook his head. Unlike Shang's refusal, Mao's refusal was because he felt that the child was too thin and small. Not only was he not as good as the chubby kids in his own tribe, he was even not as good as the kids in other ordinary tribes.

If you bring a child like this back home, you might not be able to raise him.

And even if they can feed him and he grows up to be able to work, the tribe will have to pay a lot of food.

He would never make such a loss-making exchange.

It has to be said that compared to Shang, Mao has a better talent for doing business.
